Dear Aspirant
If you wanted to do master of business administration after qualifying cat then I would like to tell you that you have to score in top 1 percentile candidates on the basis of your rank, so for that you have to work harder, so forget about competition and work harder to be in that top 1 percentile.
Good luck for your future :)
Feel free to ask if you have any further queries.
